[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you’re blessed with an intrinsically motivated kid, good for you. Most kids are not this way s it may take years of parenting to find what they’re willing to spend time and effort doing. They may never do that. Thus yes, parents should set up incentives to do the work, get good grades. Third level is kids incapable and need scaffolding for basic stuff, which hopefully get taken away over time. Being mentally healthy, functional and graduating high school are big wins. Very humbling to raise a special needs child, even if mild. [/quote] Sure, the problem is how much variation on that there is in this thread. Lost screen privileges for a month for a B? Required instruments? Required sports? Seems over the top and will not result in intrinsic motivation[/quote]
